The Blues will travel to face the Swedish side on Tuesday, with kick off scheduled for 6:45 PM GMT. Recall that Chelsea recorded 4-0 thumping of Malmo in the first leg, goals from Andreas Christensen, Kai Havertz finish and a brace of penalties by Jorginho sealed the three points.
Chelsea have been boosted with the return of Christian Pulisic who has been on the sidelines for months. He was pictured in training at the Cobham training center this afternoon.
The American was later snapped on the plane traveling with the team this Monday evening.
Meanwhile Thomas Tuchel will be without Romelu Lukaku, Timo Werner, Mateo Kovacic, Mason Mount and N'Golo Kante against Malmo as all five have remained in London for treatment and recovery.
However, Christian Pulisic is part of the travelling group, as he continues his own return from injury, meaning he could be involved for the first time since the win over Crystal Palace in August.
Chelsea are currently second in Group H Champions League group stage, with two wins and one defeat so far in the competition.
